TRIP TO HAWAII TEMPLE

A DAY AT THE TEMPLE
Our first trip to Hawaii Temple grounds with our kids was an exciting time.  This was the first time for our daughter and younger son to get there but our two older sons were there before when they were in their diapers.  We first took a photo (middle) in front of the water fountain with the Hawaii Temple as a  background.  Our children were so excited to explore the visitors' center. They were listening to prophet's talks and also searching around at the touch screen.  They were curious since we don't have a visitors' center in Samoa. We spent the whole evening in the visitors' center and it was a wonderful feeling being back with all the changes in the visitors' center from the first time we were there for education. We ended our tour infront of the temple taking pictures as the evening skies lit the firmament.  The last picture we took was when my husband re - proposed to me at the same spot where he asked for my hand in marriage.  We ended the day by sharing our experiences in the car and telling stories of when we were dating.

Welcome to the Fuatimau family blogger.  My name is Asofa Joycelynn Maiava Fuatimau and I was born on the 25th of March 1971 at Lotopa Upolu Samoa.  My parents are Aliimalemanu Pati Maiava and Pepe Sileiloga Luuga Chan Kum Tong.  As you can see I have a part chinese from my grandfather whom I have never met and he was from Canton China.  I am happily married to my handsome, and humble husband Aleni Saulo Fuatimau. We have four wonderful children (3 prince and a princess) and are residing now at Vaiola Savaii Samoa, which is a church campus for both Elementary and High School students.

3. Our third child is our one and only princess Tiresa Mercy and she is now 11 years of age.  She was born at the Motootua Hospital at Samoa.  She is a talented young lady in dancing, cooking, singing, etc. She is my right hand in helping out with family chores at home.


4. Our fourth and last prince is Bitner James who just got baptized this year on May 15th, 2011 before we went to Hawaii for a vacation. He is now attending Vaiola Primary School in the Year 3 class.
